Obsessed.

When does one go from being a fan, to being an uber, obsessed over the top fan? I ask this because as my husband and I made our way into work this morning our main topic was planning out next years vacation. Yes, I am talking about next year, as in summer of 2011. As in 15 months from now.

Of course, to Andy and myself this has become pretty routine. After all we have been DVC members for just over three years ago. Back then, we laughed at people who said they planned that far out. Thought they were nuts that they knew when, where and all because come on, admit it how many of us plan for next week let alone the following summer.

And when we signed up for the DVC neither of us thought we would ever be one of them.

And yet, three years later. We are exactly. Those people.

We sit down most of the time fresh off the most recent trip. We pull out our big planning DVC book. We calculate, we map out. We do everything that needs to be done. Knowing full well that what we are planning isn't going to be for next week, next month or even within the next twelve for the most part.

We are those people, who sit there and talk about Disney, who know which restaurants to eat at at which times. What rides are no goes, we know where everything is with our eyes closed. We are those people that swear Disney is by far the best place, most fun you'll ever have on a vacation. And no we wouldn't trade it, and no we won't go anywhere for the most part, except for the occasional trip to the beach-which thanks to the DVC- is a part of the World...

Yes, we are those people. Where being just an average fan, doesn't merely seem good enough anymore. And when obsessed seems to be exactly right.
